minutes).

not evenly. Top with about half the bananas and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of
the peanuts. Continue layering: 3/4 cup ice cream, all the strawberry
spread,another 3/4 cup ice cream, remaining bananas and remaining ice
cream. Sprinkle with remaining peanuts. Cover and freeze at least 6 hours.

drizzle each wedge with chocolate sauce. Serves 10..

strawberry preserves and reduced-calorie chocolate sauce. Omit the peanuts
in the pie and scatter just 1 tablespoon chopped peanuts on top.
